[00:03:58] <aka> hello i want to whitelist my postfix outgoing mail so emails sent from my server only can be sent to email addresses that match my whitelist
[00:04:08] <aka> does anyone know the best way to do this?

[00:07:33] <aka> shit even a blacklist for outgoing would work for me
[00:08:54] <libervisco> Hi, I'm wondering why is thunderbird from my mail server (using postfix and courier) receiving mail from a while ago yet mail on my server is showing two newer ones which it isn't getting?
[00:09:53] <libervisco> basically, when I check my mail with thunderbird I get something else, not the mail that's sitting in /var/log/myemail
[00:12:21] <lunaphyte> !check_recipient_access
[00:12:21] <knoba> lunaphyte: "check_recipient_access" : Search the specified access(5) database for the resolved RCPT TO address, domain, parent domains, or localpart@, and execute the corresponding action.
[00:12:29] <lunaphyte> aka:  ^^
[00:12:52] <lunaphyte> libervisco: smtp isn't for checking mail.
[00:13:14] <libervisco> I'm using courier-pop3d
[00:13:19] *** radius has quit IRC

[00:36:09] <k-man> how can i work out why?
[00:38:16] <roe_> anything in the log?
[00:38:26] <aka> thanks lunaphyte, looking into check_recipient_access now
[00:39:11] <k-man> roe_: the first thing that seems like a problem is this: fatal: www-data(33): unable to execute /usr/sbin/postdrop -r: Success
[00:39:25] <k-man> and then i get lots of errors like that
[00:40:05] <k-man> or maybe this error: Nov 21 01:57:04 debian postfix/sendmail[24844]: warning: command "/usr/sbin/postdrop -r" exited with status 9
[00:40:11] <aka> I am reading about check_recipient_access and it seems like it is for incoming mail :\
[00:41:40] <lunaphyte> there is no spoon
[00:42:10] <lunaphyte> or "incoming" or "outgoing".  mail is received, and mail is sent.

[01:30:18] <timotiCK> why would postfix delay the receiving of an email
[01:33:44] <NoTerminal> how do you know it's delayed?
[01:34:40] <timotiCK> some of my clients are getting their emails a day or two days after it was sent to them
[01:35:05] <shasta> logs will tell you everything
[01:35:15] <lunaphyte> look at the logs.
[01:35:49] <timotiCK> what would a good keyword to look for in the log
[01:35:58] <NoTerminal> a few quick ideas.. you might be running out of inbound available connections in a flood of inbound spam..
[01:36:05] <lunaphyte> !debug
[01:36:06] <knoba> lunaphyte: "debug" : http://www.postfix.org/DEBUG_README.html : a good starting point for how to deal with problems and to report information to those who might help. Post your information in a pastebin such as http://pastebin.ca/ or http://rafb.net/paste/ .
[01:36:07] <NoTerminal> the forign servers might be the source of the delay
[01:36:29] <NoTerminal> timotiCK: you want to try and find when the message was first received
[01:36:41] <NoTerminal> i bet it's not coming into your server until right when its delivered
[01:37:12] <shasta> keywords? recipient's and sender's email addresses <:
[01:37:32] <NoTerminal> thats actually a good idea

[01:38:27] *** BuenGenio__ has joined #postfix
[01:38:55] <timotiCK> NoTerminal: ". you might be running out of inbound available connections" Is it a good idea to increase the inbound connection number??
[01:39:10] <NoTerminal> timotiCK: not yet.. first find out if thats the problemm
[01:39:21] <shasta> first of all, it's a very wrong idea to run a mailserver without having a clue how it works
[01:39:23] <NoTerminal> you'll probably be getting errors about rejected connections
[01:39:35] <NoTerminal> everyone starts somewhere
[01:39:45] <lunaphyte> grrr.  why the f is amavis not adding spam headers to my messages?
[01:39:59] <shasta> does it check them at all, lunaphyte?
[01:40:21] <shasta> NoTerminal, but not at the point where you have "your clients"
[01:41:00] <NoTerminal> trial by fire is not a best-case-situation but often thats where you find your self in a new job.
[01:41:36] <lunaphyte> shasta: yeah, it's processing them - i can see that in the logs - but it's not adding X-Spam-Status and X-Spam-Level headers, even though i've set @local_domains_acl = (1); and $sa_tag_level_deflt = -9999;
[01:41:55] <timotiCK> The senders to my server are also getting timeout errors.
[01:41:58] <lunaphyte> i've done this a million times.  i know i'm missing something stupid.

[01:58:42] <dorfman> I have a postfix server that acts as a relay - it sits behind a spam appliance. I'd like to examine the spam headers and then, on a per recipient look up either quietly discard or relay the message.

[02:01:11] <dorfman> alright, let me phrase this in a clearer way. I've read a bunch of the stuff at http://www.postfix.org/documentation.html
[02:01:31] <dorfman> I still don't quite get how to do per recipient look up header checks
[02:01:46] <dorfman> I'm not actually sure if it's possible
[02:01:47] <lunaphyte> what have you tried?
[02:02:22] <dorfman> nothing!
[02:02:39] *** JanisB has joined #postfix

[02:02:55] *** pitakill has joined #postfix
[02:03:25] <dorfman> I was thinking that it might require an after queue content filter that just either silently discarded or reinjected

[10:54:31] *** remoteCTRL has joined #postfix
[10:54:40] <remoteCTRL> hi everybody!
[10:54:51] <remoteCTRL> i have the following question:
[10:55:46] <remoteCTRL> i have yesterday implemented three "mailinglists" by adding some entries into the "virtual" file; students@mydomain, supervisors@mydomain and all@mydomain
[10:56:03] *** hever has quit IRC
[10:56:09] *** phnord has joined #postfix
[10:56:23] <remoteCTRL> obviously all of the adresses that are contained in all@mydomain also are contained in students and in supervisors
[10:56:36] <remoteCTRL> after that i sent a test email to all three mailing lists
[10:56:55] <remoteCTRL> the i suspected that everybody ought to receive the mail TWICE
[10:57:01] <remoteCTRL> but it came only once
[10:57:16] <remoteCTRL> this leads me to the following conclusion and i wonder if it is correct:
[10:58:00] <remoteCTRL> postfix recognizes, that the mail was going to be sent to duplicate adresses and therefore is clever enuff to only send it once?
[10:58:06] <remoteCTRL> is that correct?
[11:00:03] *** sypher_ is now known as sypher
[11:01:33] <remoteCTRL> anybody, please?

[11:32:08] <deface> shal3r: do you have any other smtpd_client_restrictions ?
[11:33:53] <IcyPolecat_> hiya, I assume this is possible but not sure which combination of config directives I need to be looking at. I'd like to configure postfix as a mail relay that is permitted to send to all domains but only from within my subnet. This is a local system so I son't really want to use saslauthd but Postfix is telling me I must have a reject directive. Would permit_my_networks be suffcient to achive this even if followed by reject_unauth_
[11:33:53] <IcyPolecat_> destination?
[11:34:04] <shal3r> deface, smtpd_client_restrictions = permit_mynetworks, permit_sasl_authenticated, reject_rbl_client zen.spamhaus.org

[11:45:16] <IcyPolecat_> more general question. Is it bad practice to restrict emails to 1 address per envelope or should I be handling the envelope split later on (milter code with profiles per recipient makes this a bit of a nightmare)
[11:49:17] <cite> I don't understand your question. There is only one MAIL FROM per mail, but there can be up to smtpd_recipient_limit RCPT TO commands per transaction.

[11:54:04] <IcyPolecat_> cite: sorry yes, I mean to limit messages to one rcpt to per message is this practice and what's the support like for splitting and re-sending mail on other servers?
[11:54:38] <cite> IcyPolecat_: Usually, you don't limit the number of recipients to 1 at smtp time.
[11:54:46] *** BuenGenio_ has quit IRC
[11:54:49] <deface> cedric33: the size of the email, or the number of emails in queue ?

[12:31:37] <mmcji> deface: I just happened to check /etc/hostname and found that it was NOT my fqdn.  Doh!  I changed that and now when I send e-mail it has the fqdn of my mail server.
[12:32:02] *** hparker has joined #postfix
[12:32:14] <deface> mmcji: true
[12:32:48] <mmcji> i did check my origin as well and this is what I have myorigin = /etc/mailname
[12:33:00] *** BuenGenio_ has quit IRC
[12:33:04] <mmcji> where mailname does contain my fqdn
[12:33:08] *** trukosh has quit IRC
[12:33:22] <mmcji> so i guess my hostname was the cause
[12:33:42] <deface> usually myorigin = $mydomain
[12:33:46] <deface> and $mydomain = fqdn
[12:34:05] *** incidenc1 is now known as incidence
[12:34:10] <mmcji> does $mydomain point to /etc/hostname?
[12:34:17] <deface> no
[12:34:31] <deface> $mydomain refers to the variable in main.cf
[12:34:39] <deface> myorigin = $mydomain
[12:34:46] <deface> $mydomain = zeus.fluxlabs.net
[12:34:56] <deface> hence my fqdn
[12:35:09] *** denis_ has quit IRC
[12:35:12] <mmcji> o ok, gotcha, so that is how you define the sender of the mail, when you want it to be different from the hostname of the mail server its self?
[12:35:36] <deface> could, or you could use some address rewrites
[12:36:02] <mmcji> which is the best practices way of doing it?
[12:36:17] <deface> are you virtual?
[12:36:33] <deface> it doesnt rewrite by default, so shouldn't be a need to modify anything
[12:36:37] <deface> sender in > sender out
[12:36:38] <deface> same
[12:36:38] <mmcji> that is my plan.  I have 5 different domains

[18:09:05] <wonderwal> which config parameter would set that i want auth to come from /etc/passwd?
[18:09:15] <roe> so local users
[18:09:52] <roe> what os?
[18:09:56] <wonderwal> freebsd
[18:10:40] <roe> I do not know much about freebsd, however, postfix on linux uses pam, which auths to /etc/passwd
[18:10:47] <wonderwal> im first trying local.. maybe i'll switch to virtual later
[18:10:49] <wonderwal> mm
[18:10:51] <roe> you can change this default behaviour
[18:10:54] <wonderwal> but where would that be in main.cf
[18:11:18] <roe> well, to auth you are looking at:
[18:11:20] <roe> !SASL
[18:11:21] <knoba> roe: "SASL" : SASL is 'Simple Authentication and Security Layer', necessary for SMTP AUTH, and provided to Postfix by addin software. Cyrus SASL and/or Dovecot IMAP/POP3 can provide SASL. See http://www.postfix.org/SASL_README.html for details.
[18:11:34] <wonderwal> yep
[18:11:41] <roe> usually paired with:
[18:11:43] <roe> !TLS
[18:11:44] <knoba> roe: "TLS" : short for "Transport Layer Security" (RFC2246). It adds an additional layer of encryption to protocols like SMTP, POP3 or IMAP to improve security during transmission over the internet. You can find HOWTOs on that topic on http://www.postfix.org/docs.html
[18:11:51] <roe> but not necessarily
[18:11:52] <wonderwal> im just saying, how does postfix know to use /etc/passwd or virtual users
[18:11:59] <roe> you tell sasl to
[18:12:14] <roe> you configure postfix to use sasl, and sasl to use whatever backend you want

[18:18:51] <wonderwal> roe: ouch it wont auth me

[18:19:46] <wonderwal> ok i will try

[18:20:19] <wonderwal> is it necessary to specify a domain name in the username? i have
[18:20:21] <roe> reverse that
[18:20:32] <roe> newton^
[18:20:43] <roe> the crt needs to be world readable - the key is secret

[18:24:01] <newton> http://pastie.org/320731

[19:48:01] <xorl> Well, i am using it, a couple of days ago it worked fine (creating maildirs) now, mysteriously it's not creating the physical maildir.

[19:48:44] <xorl> Creates it in the database just fine says it creates everything but the maildir does not exist.
[19:49:18] <Dominian> check your maillog or your web server logs
[19:49:22] <Dominian> sounds to me like a permissions issue

[19:51:15] <xorl> I am damn sure it is perms. maillog didn't say anything when i created the Mailbox in postfix admin

[20:11:36] <ki_> Hello. I took the room intro text to heart.
[20:11:40] <ki_> 1) Some customers intermittently receiving duplicate emails. Not all customers receive duplicate emails. The customers vary; one customer may get duplicate emails one mailing, and not the next. Please see settings and logs:
[20:11:47] <ki_> http://pastebin.com/m25b9e565
[20:12:12] <ki_> 2) Notice the time sent is the exact same time, yet has a different Queue ID. Each message sent has a unique ID included within the message header for tracking the message. The message is recorded by the database as being queued once. The unique ID applied at time of queue by software is found in both messages that were sent.
[20:12:32] <Dominian> if the queue id is changing then I'd say the customer is submitting it twice
[20:12:38] <Dominian> or the sende ris submitting twice
[20:13:07] <ki_> So i have the application/database layer saying it queued once, and at time of queue it applies a unique tracking code to the header
[20:13:13] <ki_> and the postfix log showing two queues
[20:13:28] <ki_> what about disk errors?
[20:13:38] <ki_> during the writing
[20:14:03] *** timotiCK has quit IRC
[20:14:28] <ki_> the email is only in the list once. the application is coded to only queue it once. the database confirms it was queued once. postfix logs have two different queue ID's.

[22:21:59] *** BuenGenio has joined #postfix
[22:26:22] <wonderwal> uhh
[22:26:38] <wonderwal> and if i want to use /etc/passwd?
[22:26:59] <newton> normal user accounts on unix? its working here;)
[22:27:20] <newton> but postfix is also configurated for that
[22:27:25] <newton> @ me
[22:29:16] <wonderwal> ah ok
[22:29:19] <wonderwal> guess i must do that
[22:29:24] <wonderwal> and i guess thats where you really need ss
[22:29:25] <wonderwal> l
[22:29:31] <newton> i'm a mailserver noob :P
[22:29:44] <wonderwal> same :P
[22:29:48] <newton> ;)
[22:30:04] <wonderwal> actually i was using qmail.. but doing greylisting seemed really hard
[22:30:23] <newton> just reading the docs and wiki's on centos ;)
[22:30:42] <wonderwal> but it seems quite easy wiht postfix
[22:31:49] *** BuenGenio has quit IRC
[22:31:57] <newton> still i think postfix is hard :p

[22:33:44] <wonderwal> hmm
[22:33:50] <wonderwal> a little
[22:34:14] <wonderwal> i got it working in 5 hours :P
[22:34:17] <newton> if it runs, its fine with me
[22:34:41] <newton> Lol i had it working in 3 hours.. and then squirrelmail was working against me (another 3 hours.)
[22:34:54] <wonderwal> nice
[22:35:15] <newton> with ubuntu it was apt-get install postfix dovecot squirrelmail roundcube
[22:35:37] <wonderwal> yep and then when something breaks you have no idea what to do
[22:35:39] <newton> and it was setup in less then 5 minutes (well i had to do some config, but that was ready in a minute)
[22:35:46] <newton> indeed
[22:35:48] <wonderwal> because you dont config anything yourself
[22:36:00] <newton> lol thats why i switched :D
[22:36:06] <wonderwal> a.k.a. the whole problem with ubuntu
[22:36:26] <newton> well i'm an ubuntu desktop user, ubuntu is not bad its just "too" easy
[22:39:27] <wonderwal> i only do freebsd+gentoo
[22:39:31] <wonderwal> nothing else makes sense t ome
[22:39:58] <newton> lol:)
